BA cabin crew to strike this month

3/15/2010

British Airways cabin crew will go on strike for three days from 20 March and for four days from 27 March. The workers’ union, Unite, said that it had failed to reach an agreement with the airline, while BA Chief Executive Willie Walsh said that the airline’s offer had now been withdrawn. The airline and the union are in dispute over pay and staffing levels. The BBC reported BA as saying that some long-haul services from Heathrow would be affected.
